It does seems that some posters' issues are just as likely to be with USPS and Canada Post when they deliberately send cash and "jewellery" unregistered but then, with no evidence, choose to blame Thailand Post. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

chilly07 Posted August 21, 2021 Share Posted August 21, 2021 Found Thai Post Office v reliable. International couriers however are not and along with Customs open parcels and invent additional charges 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I've never had a courier company charge anything except import duty, VAT and their small disbursement charges that are always detailed specifically on the shipping receipt. What else could they charge for? You'll find that any opened items will have been opened by the Customs Department, as they are permitted to do. The likes of DHL, etc., do not open customers items.

chalawaan Posted August 21, 2021 Share Posted August 21, 2021 I've had credit cards and even birthday cards never make it here. EMS outwards seems to work. However, just last month some little greaseball post office agent, tried to charge me B1000 to send a B108 EMS to London. I was polite but firm, and knew my postal rates. It's all online in English, before you go to the orifice. Technology will eventually beat them all into honesty, even the whales, mark my words. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

That tracking actually shows that the item has left Thailand... "Suvarhnabhumi Mail Centre, Departure from Outward OE". Waiting for La Poste to respond to enquiries about missing items is normal, it is not giving excuses. Thailand Post has already offered you B7,000 (the maximum figure with EMS) according to your post so why don't you just take that? There's no way that they will offer more compensation than that provided by the EMS service. What was the solid gold watch that only cost B31,000?

Well, if you have that in writing (as opposed to the official EMS details) you have no problem but if you did not get that in writing or on a receipt why would you have sent a "solid gold watch" in the post?

Captain Monday Posted August 21, 2021 Share Posted August 21, 2021 You have your proof, it is not safe or secure. I would not use US mail or Thai post internationally for anything more valuable than a picture postcard. A mugs game. Fedex UPS or DHL only way to go. Cargo flights have never been curtailed or delayed for the entirety of the covid-19 crisis, in fact the number of services increased. 7 weeks wait for a letter from Japan no sign of it. Sending from Thailand to Japan on Fedex 4 days. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
